A motorist enters his vehicle parked on a protected bicycle lane in the 500 block of West Kinzie Street last June in Chicago.around bicycle and pedestrian safety in Chicago last year — and the successful passage of a law that sharply raises penalties for parking in bike lanes — a new ordinance has been proposed that would use mounted city cameras to enforce such rules.
Drivers who violate the rules would have one warning, and if they commit again, would get ticketed. The pilot is scheduled to last through June 30, 2025. The second pilot would use license plate readers to enforce parking violations in commercial loading zones, with an aim to prevent double parking “that puts drivers, bicyclists, and pedestrians in unsafe conditions, decrease vehicle idling and reduce emissions, and create a more efficient system for payment and drop-offs for commercial drivers,” according to the mayor’s office.
NO! Bikes pay NO road/gas taxes,nothing no license fees,yet drivers who pay for it all expected to carry their water!
I hate bike lanes. Makes it so much harder to see bikers. False sense of security.
We need police to video criminals I could care less where folks park. Trust me I am not alone. Police the folks shooting at folks, robbing people or car jacking please and thanks.
More government control
I think drivers can park there once they stop drinking and driving, stop causing thousands of fatalities annually, stop maiming pedestrians, stop blowing stop signs. But they won’t. So they should be ticketed.
No.
Does this include catching any carjackers?
I’d rather have a car in the bike lane, than having to drive to the grocery store with my gun in my lap. 🤷🏻🤷🏻🤷🏻
I would rather tackle people who run stop signs.
Maybe once bicycles have to be licensed like cars. Vehicles pay to for use of the streets & parking. Pony up or stuff it.
Yes and violators ticketed
